Traffic and Laundry

Decided to take the “long” way home because that is the street the Laundromat is on although I had half talked myself out of doing the it. The rain has been pouring down and really, who needed clean clothes anyway?
Got past the Super Wal-Mart signal light and traffic came to a screeching halt. I had [...]

Sleepwalking Again

Sometimes I feel like I am sleepwalking through life.  I know most of you know what I’m talking about – I’m not putting forth any real effort to make life better or worse.  I’m floating down the middle of the river without a care which might sound ok but in reality, it isn’t.  Life is [...]

Embarrassing

So I stopped at Panara on my way to work today for some soup.  I ate a bowl there and then took a bowl with me to work of their scrumptious potato soup for later.  As I always do, I stopped in at a convenience store for something to drink.  I didn’t pay much attention [...]

Hilarious

Talk about something being hilariously ironic – I finally get an offer on my condo just after I’m served the foreclosure documents.  Isn’t that just so damn laughable that it makes a person want to laugh till they cry? I know I sure laughed over it.  It is too late, according to the attorney, to [...]

Suicides

There has been a high rate of suicides this past week – more than nine that I’ve counted so far.  I don’t understand why there is a rise in the numbers – is it because we are getting closer to the holidays? Does winter play a factor in this or is it the economy?
How bad [...]

Dusty Dirt

While I was waiting for the staff to return to the doctor’s office today, I decided to go wash my car.  There was a thin layer of dust on it which makes it appear dull in color instead of shiny.  I spent the money, washed the car and went back to my apt.  Later I [...]

Off to Work I go, Hi Ho, Hi Ho

Well, it is that time again – off to work for my first 12 hour shift.  I can’t say I mind it – I didn’t have anything to do at home anyway.
Took the dogs for a short walk.  Two grown people on bicycles were on the sidewalk and started harassing me for walking the dogs [...]

Carrabba’s Bar and Grill

I was pleasantly surprised to find Carrabba’s had a restaurant in the airport.  This is the favored Italian restaurant Holly and I would go to in Sarasota.  Their food is quite excellent. 
I was seated in the outer seating area so I could people watch while I waited for my food.  I ordered the Messaluna – [...]

I’m an idiot

Last week I was cleaning up around the house and noticed the headphones for my cell phone on the desk.  They have a special jack that goes to the phone – regular headphones than plug into this cord so I can use my phone as an MP3 player.  I would have to order a new [...]

What a dud of a night

I thought folks might find the humor in how my night went after I left work at 3am this morning.
 
First, I get up to my car and find my back tire is flat.  That’s ok, I know how to change a tire.  So I dig around in the trunk to find my jack and other assortment of [...]
